Porto, Recent FormHaving taken all 3 points, with a crucial 2-1 away win over Moreirense in their last league game, Porto will undoubtedly be very satisfied with their work. In that game they had 63% possession and managed 16 attempts on goal, with 7 on target, compared to Moreirense who had 9 attempts and 1 on target.
With 13 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, their manager Sérgio Conceição will be very pleased with his team's form going forward, but he will be casting a cautious eye over his defence, who have shipped 4 goals in the same period. Their goal scoring streak now stands at 10 games in a row.
The continued consistency shown by Dragões is exceptional, having won 10 consecutive games.
Goalscorer Mehdi Taremi will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 7 goals in his last 6 league matches for Porto.
Farense, Recent FormIn the aftermath of a 3-0 home mauling at the hands of Casa Pia, the Farense team will need to refocus and rebuild confidence among the team. They came away from that fixture with a 56% share of the possession and clocked up 12 attempts on goal with 4 on target, in comparison to Casa Pia, who managed 16 attempts on goal, 7 of which were on target.
Manager José Mota will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 5 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, and playing away from home, they're currenlty on a run of 2 clean sheets in a row.
With 4 straight wins in a row away from home, they have started to put together a nice run of form, which has also seen them undefeated in their last 4 away games.
On an individual basis, Cláudio Falcão has scored in each of Farense's last league game away from home.
The last time these two teams met Porto enforced their superiority over Farense with a comfortable 5-1 win.
Goals should be on the cards for Porto in this one, given they have found the net, with at least 1 goal, against Farense in their last 8 meetings together. In their past 5 meetings, Dragões' defence has been pretty stingy, only conceding 1 goal, so Farense will have to take their chances when they come. We have seen plenty of goals from Dragões when they play at home against Farense. In their last 3 league matches they have scored a total of 9 goals, which is an average of 3 goals per game. Porto have managed to keep a clean sheet against Farense in 4 of their previous 5 meetings.
Farense will be determined to get something from this game having lost the last 6 times they've met Porto in the league and not won this fixture for 8 games in a row.
With only Francisco Evanilson (Muscle) and Gabriel Veron (Muscle) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Sérgio Conceição will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
Farense manager José Mota has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
